Goly 1,818 Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 (edited) My lurcher got tangled by the shoulder but it was barbed wire and one of the barbs went deep in to the muscle. I was at a loss with what to do as I was about a mile and half from my grandmother's, he could barely touch the floor with his back legs, I couldn't free him so told him to stay so I could fetch some snips, I'd walked a few yards and then heard a big snap, he'd torn himself away which left a right tear on his shoulder and a fair bit of damage to his muscle.

That was greedy aristocratic land owners tying deer to the fence so that the great unwashed couldn’t have them mate……! lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
